West Midlands

CBT therapy across the West Midlands

Birmingham anchors the West Midlands' therapy provision, but every part of the region has accessible CBT routes — including some of the country's longest-running group CBT programmes for OCD and PTSD, run out of NHS specialist services in Birmingham and Coventry.

Talking Therapies services here include Forward Thinking Birmingham, Healthy Minds (Solihull, Dudley, Sandwell, Wolverhampton, Walsall), Coventry and Warwickshire Wellbeing Service, NSFT Talking Therapies Staffordshire, and Shropshire Talking Therapies. All accept self-referral.

Private fees in Birmingham city centre and Leamington Spa sit at £80–£110; the Black Country and Stoke are typically £65–£90. There is also unusually strong provision of culturally-specific CBT in Birmingham — therapists working in Urdu, Punjabi, Gujarati and Bengali — which is harder to find elsewhere.
